Auto Turret peacekeeper question

[H2O D. Mart]

I placed an auto turret and put it on peacekeeper mode. Then I had a near by neighbor test it out he was holding a semi automatic full armor etc. Wasn't authorized and the turret didnt shoot him to death?

[H2O D. Mart]

He even shot in the air, and shot me twice. Yet the turret just kept its green dot on his head sayin he was clear.

it will target anyone who does damage to another player

did you have ammo in it...

[sal.t]

oh yes you have to put 5.56 ammo in it. or it cant shoot

Peacekeeper turrets have this strange attribute similar to the attack heli

No, peacekeeper turrets attack you only if you have 3 armor on or a gun in your hot bar (hatchets and picks count)

no that's not true because you can easily exploit that and peace keeper is meant for over watch of trade posts etc.

and maybe it'll attack you for having any weapon classified as one in your hands but I know for a fact it doesn't matter what's in your hot bar and how much gear you are wearing

Well everything you all said isnt happening. And yes of course i put ammo in it, and yes its the right ammo. The dude shot me twice and it didnt open fire on him so idk. It only shot him after I put it on kill al mode.

"Water Bottles, Bota Bags, Buckets, and Rocks are no longer considered hostile items to the turret, so you won’t be blown away by pulling one of these out. However, if at any point you deal any damage to anything you will immediately be targeted. I feel like this is a good trade-off: " that was devblog 149. so now you have an idea of what they're Intending to do. ofc it sounds like the function is broken atm but what can you expect it's fp and a developing game lol coding is a fuccshow. but atleast for now you atleast have some useful info on where they want to take it. best you can do is just read all the devblogs as they come out and see when it's changed/fixed (unless your test is missing something key). but I've been around years and never read anything about it caring for the clothes you wear lol don't listen to that. if you care about the game it's just 10 minutes out of your day every week.
